This was an average snow year and I am in the Sierra earlier than normal, so I imagine there should be more snow. I’m sure you understand this, but something I’ve also learned is that every year is different thru-hiking.

I’ve been following along in my journal. You’ve definitely had more of an adventure with more snow cover than my hike in ‘08. We hiked down to the TH for Independence/Bishop on June 8, so about 2 weeks later than your crew. The pics show a lot more snow cover than we had. Inagine you’ll be back on trail before reading this comment, but second your idea of crampons for upcoming passes.
